Shepard Iris Hook

3.0 mm hook, curved, 5" (12.5 cm)Bonn Iris Hook is a commonly used tool during cataract procedures and operations needing access to the lens capsule. The 3.0mm hook is provides additional traction by pulling underneath the iris, minimizing slippage and fatigue.

9.0 mm shaft, 90 degrees angled 2.0 mm tip, curved, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm) Lewicky Lens Manipulating Hook is a commonly used tool during cataract procedures. The hook is used to manipulate the opacified native lens during a phacoemulsification procedure. The extended length of the hook combined with the angled tip minimizes surgical obstruction during the procedure.

0.5 mm hook, 4-7/8" (12.4 cm) Knolle Iris Hook is a commonly used tool in cataract surgeries. The hook is used to retract a portion of the iris tissue to gain access to the lens capsule. Often, multiple hooks are used at different positions around the iris and anchored, providing adequate visualization for lens removal. The Knolle hook has a slender tip for more selective retraction while featuring a serrated handle for an improved grip.

0.15 mm diameter, straight, 4-1/2" (11.5 cm) Jaffe Lens Manipulating Hook is a commonly used tool during cataract procedures. The hook is used to manipulate the opacified native lens during a phacoemulsification procedure. The thin shaft of the hook is meant to maximize control of the instrument while providing enough leverage to maneuver the lens into a desired position.
